Sydney

I've been abandoning my blog for quite sometimes. After the packing session, it seemed that my life been go..go and go.. Have no time to even to relax or even have a 'me time'. I have new job, new friends and new community. All of these are important and exiting for me. For my new job, its been a hard full on for the first few weeks. As my supervisor and my boss, just literally just said this that and just throw me of I went. Oh gosh.. how the heck suppose I know or learn the techniques that I never use before? But at least now all under control and its a fun working life, as well I just realize it now that I had grown a lot by leaving my comfort zone and tackle it. Even it's hard at the start and to be honest I hate it, but now all I can see, that it was a learning period and time for me to grow. Loving my hectic and chop..chop.. lifestyle which keep me functioning.

packing.. and... packing...

The most things I hate is PACKING!!! I had started packing for a week plus. The reason was, I always in denial whenever I started to see the boxes and my stuffs in the wardrobe. It was so hard to throw stuff that barely useful anymore for me, some of it I still like it. Bcos it got some memories on it. But, I really need to decide if I would use those or not. I think that's why my stuffs so much like a mountain high! Luckily now, all the stuffs 90% already in boxes or suitcase, so now I got limited stuffs that I can wear until I move. Currently I am looking for a good removal which with a reasonable price. Still tossing to call them. And as a main reason I need to weight all my boxes and suitcase!! So any suggestion on any removal company?

Counting down

Finally, I got a job offer in Sydney! After wanting and waiting for sometimes. I can say that I am excited and stress. New environment, new house, and new colleagues as well as friends. Now I need to start packing, sorting my stuffs... Oh I really don't like packing, but I like unpacking... hmm it's the weird habit of mine. Can't wait!!! Still haven't decided when should I move, maybe 4-5 weeks in counting.

CNY

Finally after 8 years without spending my CNY with the big big extended family of mine back in jakarta, I had my chance this year to do so. I flew back again with Garuda, since I got special discount (my tixs was 945$) and 40 kg baggage allowance. I been missing the hectic of family reunion and the quite street (bcos some indo-chinese ppl would close their shops). So when I had started my itenary by visiting the jakarta chinatown. Wow, to be honest I was so shocked and extremely happy. Because I could see again the red and pink decoration that filled all the chinatown. Every where I saw was with a CNY spirit! (Note: now I know I thing I understood, the reason of my friends with chinese background would always go back for CNY) It was not only for the CNY spirit that filled the chinatown, but every where, even in Malls I saw the meticulous decoration for CNY as well as in clothing dept store, all filled with red colour! Wow, it was such a heaven on earth for me. I know I was pathetic, but could you imagined yourself exposed to these CNY massive celebration and decoration compared to the 'bare' of Aussie during CNY! hahaha....

One day before and on the day itself. I had a huge mountainous of my CNY favorite celebration foods! So happy... On top of met up with so called the long lost relatives back at home, which some of them I had not seen since I was junior high. I was having fun as well as lost in time. Did you believe some of them I did not recognize at first.

However, my CNY celebration in Indo this year was the best compared my CNY that I had in Aussie. I guessed the part of being hectic and I had chance to meet up with my 'lost relatives' it had given me a good spirit for this year. I hoped your CNY was awesome too!
